One Christmas when I decided to make a box of personalized miniature accessories for my grandparents— dollhouse hobbyists who had created beautiful dollhouses for themselves and all of their grandchildren.

I really think that the charm of a dollhouse lies in its attention to detail: the unexpected surprise of a pair of slippers by a bed, a bundle of love letters peeking out of a drawer, the birds’ nest tucked away high in the gables.

Oh, and did I mention…this is in 1″ scale? As in, the entire thing is less than a foot across.

Mind officially blown.

About

I design video games for a living, write fiction, political theory and poetry for personal amusement, and train regularly in Western European 16th century swordwork. On frequent occasion I have been known to hunt for and explore abandoned graveyards, train tunnels and other interesting places wherever I may find them, but there is absolutely no truth to the rumor that I am preparing to set off a zombie apocalypse. Nothing that will stand up in court, at least. I use paranthesis with distressing frequency, have a deep passion for history, anthropology and sociological theory, and really, really, really hate mayonnaise. But I wash my hands after the writing. Promise.
